What's driving all that innovation? It's us.

We're talking about energy. It's cool to talk about energy.
我們正在談論能源。這聽起來很酷炫。
Some folks are even talking about the problems with the limited resources where our current energy is coming from.

We encourage our best and brightest to work on this issue -- better solar panels, better batteries, everything.
我們邀請我們當中最棒，最聰明的那批去解決這個問題。更加有效的太陽能板，更高能的電池。
So let's talk about where our drinking water is coming from, where our poo and pee are actually going.
現在讓我們來討論一下我們飲用水的來源吧，其實就是我們排泄物的去處。
If we can get over this discomfort with this entire topic,

we could create something that creates our future goldmine.

Every time you flush the toilet, I want you to think,

"Where is my poop and pee going? Will they be gainfully employed?"

"Or are they going to be wreaking havoc in some waterway?"
“或者他們會在水道當中制造大動亂嗎？”
If you don't know, find out.
如果你們不清楚的話，就要去弄清楚。
And if you don't like the answer, figure out how you can communicate to those who can drive this change
當你們不喜愛答案的時候，就弄明白如何才能與管轄這件事的人聯系上，

How all of you feel is going to determine exactly how innovative we can be. Thank you so much.
